The result is a concept sports car which is completely new , unmatched and efficient .

Many advanced solutions applied Ferrari for the first time on this model car 458 Speciale , including sophisticated active aerodynamics , which will become a standard feature for all Ferrari cars in the future .

Entered the ranks of cars produced in Maranello along with 458 Italian and 458 Spyder that has received various awards , rearengined Berlinetta by mid - 4497 cc V8 is designed to enhance the performance and driving sensations unimaginable , but still guarantees an easy and convenient control in all conditions .

Received many awards for its power unit which was awarded the " Best Performance Engine " in an awards event titled Engine of the Year Awards, for two consecutive years , Ferrari builds a V8 engine ( 605 hp ) naturally aspirated strongest type capable of producing the largest ever achieved by a naturally aspirated engine of any vehicle ever produced .

Thanks to the ratio of the weight / power is no less stunning in the amount of 2.13 kg / cv , 458 Speciale it only takes 3 seconds to reach 100 km / h from 0 km / h ( 0-200 km / h is achieved in 9 , 1 sec ) .

Thanks to the development of new algorithms are accurate , the SSC is able to perform analysis of instant - to- instant when the vehicle is subjected to side slip , and then compare it with the goal of optimizing the value of engine torque ( via integration with F1 - Track traction control ) as well as the distribution of torque between the two wheels ( through integration with the E - Diff electronic differentiation ) .

Besides analyzing the SSC function and set the direction to turn the vehicle so that power is channeled labor is not in vain .

Including parts that can not be separated from the development of this car , is burning Cup2 Michelin Pilot Sport tires that are specifically made ​​for the 458 Speciale through a collaborative program involving a number of test tracks and simulator sessions , as well as other tests .
